USING PHOTOSHOP LIGHTROOM 4
The Lightroom workflow
Last updated 11/26/2012
3. Make global color adjustments.
By default, the Develop module displays panels for making global adjustments to photos on the right side of the
window. You can make Develop module adjustments in any order, but a common approach to using these panels is to
start at the top and work down. Starting with the Basic panel, you can adjust the white balance, tonal scale, and color
saturation of a photo, including Clarity and Vibrance. You can refine global color and tonal adjustments in the Tone
Curve and HSL/Color/B&W panels, and you create special effects or colorize monochrome photos in the Split Toning
panel. See
Adjust image color and tone” on page 107.
4. Reduce noise and apply sharpening.
Use the Detail panel to reduce noise and adjust the sharpness in a photo. Use the Lens Corrections panel to correct
perspective distortions caused by the camera lens. See
Sharpening and noise reduction” on page 121 and Correct lens
distortion and adjust perspective” on page 123.
Use the Before/After button in the toolbar to see the results of your edits, or simply press \ to cycle between before and
after views. Use the History panel to return to any previous edit. Click the plus sign (+) in the Snapshots panel to
capture any editing state that you can return to at a later time.
5. Retouch and correct flaws.
At any time, use the Crop Overlay, Red Eye Correction, and Spot Removal tools to crop and straighten your photo and
to remove red eye, dust, and spots. To apply a postcrop vignette or film grain effect, use the options in the Effects panel.
See
Adjust crop and rotation” on page 115, “Retouch photos” on page 117, and Vignette and grain effects” on
page 126.
6. Apply local adjustments.
Color correct specific areas of a photo by using the Adjustment Brush tool or the Graduated Filter tool. See “Apply
local adjustments” on page 118.
7. Apply adjustments to other photos.
You can apply edits from one photo to many others. For example, apply a set of edits to all of the photos from a specific
shoot that require the same global adjustments. You can copy and paste them, or synchronize them. When you copy
or synchronize corrections, Lightroom allows you to select the specific edits that you want to apply to the other photos.
You can also use the Painter tool in the Grid view of the Library to apply Develop settings from one photo to another.
See
Apply Develop adjustments to other photos” on page 129.
Exporting photos: Basic workflow
In Lightroom, you do not save photos in the traditional sense. Instead, you export photos. You can export photos in a
variety of file formats suitable for a wide range of uses. For example, you can export photos as JPEGs to share online,
or as TIFFs for a print publication.
When you export photos, you create new files that include Develop module adjustments and other changes you’ve
made to the photos’ XMP data. When exporting, options are available for specifying a photo’s filename, color space,
pixel dimensions, and resolution. Export settings can be saved as presets for reuse.
The Publish Services panel allows you to export and upload JPEG photos directly from Lightroom to photo-sharing
websites. For example, see
Publish from Lightroom to Facebook” on page 139.
To export photos from Lightroom, follow these basic steps:
